Congratulations to David and Robin for winning our Outdoor Kitchen!

This unique outdoor kitchen was designed and built by the youth in our vocational program, with assistance from staff. Our vocational program teaches high school-aged clients the basics of carpentry, electrical work, and plumbing while they stay at our emergency shelter.

What would you like to see the kids build next??

Trip of a Lifetime was BLAST! We took a few of our clients to Bryson City, North Carolina, where we spent the week hiking, swimming, whitewater rafting, and exploring the great outdoors!

This trip was made possible by United Way of Marion County and our team of riders at the Children’s Charity Classic for placing 1st!

Now the kids are back in school, and the summer fun is over.
Where should we go next year for our Trip of a Lifetime?
